London Event July 6 – Kidnap and Ransom

Location: Canary Wharf (exact location will be given to registered attendees)

PS21 brings together a uniquely qualified panel to discuss both the trade itself and the growing kidnap and ransom (K&R) industry. From London in particular, an elite group of specialists offer negotiation skills, helping insurers bring people home in one piece. But is that simply perpetuating the problem? And what approach, if any, should governments take when it comes to paying ransoms to kidnappers?
